no I won't, because I 1) care about people younger than me and try to improve the world I live in to make it better for them and 2) I don't vote to grant myself every possible economic bonanza under the sun at the younger generation's expense. Just ask that JDN guy, the SS recipient, typical US elderly person. He laughs about the middle class jobs rout, all the jobs going to india but claims that he PAID for his SS and therefore he deserves it!!! What a bunch of BS. Nobody in my generation will get a dime from that boondoggle, why the heck should my employees and myself care about old fools like him? He is better off financially than my staff and he supports Bush economic policies which screw anybody under 40 with this generations debts. I should say that if an elderly person can pass a means test, which includes a net worth gauge including home equity, then I would be for paying SS benefits and maybe even increasing the minimum payouts now. But all other elderly who are wealthy should be cutoff.
